Sometimes, when people ask me re: my protein intake (and they bug a lot of vegans about it) I say "the same place a gorilla or a cow does!!! So, I eat like a cow or a gorilla or most animals. Trust me, I monitor my protein intake and it's really hard not to get enough unless you aren't eating or you're eating junk. You don't need to eat soy at all. You don't even have to eat beans. You don't even have to eat nuts and seeds. It's easy to get enough tryptophan naturally in foods, too. Also, I forgot to mention Hemp as a source of protein. You have to also keep in mind the popular "low carb" mentality that has invaded society. I personally don't adhere to this trendy thinking. It is also detrimental to IBS, according to Heather VV.
Anyways, like I said, just eat like a cow or a gorilla or a chicken or yes, a pig (those adorable animals raised for bacon, etc.)and you'll get enough protein. Hmmm...eating like a giraffe? Let's go to the zoo! (Yes, I'm being completely absurd, I know. But serious, of course.)
